The six-time WorldSBKও champion will contest the next two seasons with Kawasaki after signing a multi-yea🅷r deal midway through last season.

However, the 2024 season c♛ould potentially be Rea’s last as the Kawasaki star feels he’s in a good position to walk away from the sport should the Japanese manufacturer fail to entice him to continue.

"I don't need racing for the rest of my life," said Rea when 𓃲speaking to . "Financially I am well secured, I have a nice life outside of racing. 

"I enjoy my time on the bike and I like the competition. It will also depend on Kawasaki's 👍ideas. 

"After that I can think about retiring🐎. I'm going to talk to Kawasaki about whether there's a job for me at the company after racing. 

"As a test rider, as an ambassador, in team management, whatever. If I had to sit on the sofa with my wife al💖l day every day, we would soon be divorced. 

"I have to have something for me too. I'll probably need a year after my retirꦐement to think about my future. Maybe we will go to Australia."

Rea finished third in the 2022 WorldS🅷BK standings after recording his lowest single-season win total (6) since joining Kawasaki in 2015. 

With that said, Rea was impressive at many rounds as he dem💎onstrated incredible speed to secure the most pole positions (5) of 2022.

Rea had been linked with a move to Ducati once again in 2022, but when asked if leaving Kawasaki was in his 🌠mind, the Northern Irishman said: "Not at the moment. Most of my good career memories come from my Kawasaki days. The♍ time at Honda tired me."
